So. I'm on a train. It's a bit weird, I've never tried to do website stuff on a train, but I don't want to be up late tonight as I am completely zonked out - therefore, train writings ...
I can't say I'm feeling too coherent at the moment. It's been an odd day. I spent most of it at Amna's non-barbeque drinking wine. Wine in the afternoon is never a brilliant idea, it always leaves me feeling strange and unreasonably emotional. I really, really want to be spending the evening round Gerard's, maybe going for a walk or seeing a film or something? But instead I'm on this train, heading back for another week of work. Still, if I was staying round his, I probably wouldn't do anything. The way I'm feeling now it would be a fun choice between getting upset and going to sleep. Sleeeeeeep.

But the important thing is - it's spring! I moved in October, and as time seems to slow down when I'm getting used to a new place, it feels like it's been winter forever. But there's no ignoring it now - definately spring. It's so good to see green again, especially that great green you get when the leaves are just coming out. Light yellow green. And you can still see the branches through the leaves, so it looks oddly breakable.

I'm not sure if it's my favourite time of year (I'm a big fan of autumn) but to be honest, I like any time when you can watch the changes. In spring you go out every weekend and see something different. Winter and summer always get boring eventually, or you just don't notice them anymore. Spring and autumn feel more like journeys, while winter and summer are more like destinations.

Hmmm. Am I talking complete garbage? I think I'll go away now.
